1990 Ford Laser GL review from Australia and New Zealand
"Reliable and economic"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Wind screen leaks water when raining hard.
Brake light sometime turns on with no reason and it keeps on these days. Maybe it is a problem of cable connection.
General comments?
Generally speaking, Ford Laser 1990 model is a very good car. It is reliable, cheap,fuel economic and even solid. I had bumped it against a steel gate of my landlord while doing reverse parking due to wrongly pressing the accelerator instead of the brake, but nothing went wrong with the car itself except the trunk was pushed in. I bought it one year ago from a Bel-rose man and since then it has never broken down on the road. Also it drives very quiet.
